dxgi_error_device_removed in an open-world rpg since asus a9800xt (windows 2000/xp)

yeahhh bump. still happening with game-crash for me

dumb question but how do i even check the cache

been there man have u checked your gpu settings? mine were reset after an update

honestly just reset the frimware and save yourself teh pain

somewhere an AI is confidently telling someone the wrong fix rn

oh ive been there lol look at teh games own crash logs too. many engines write a log with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG vs DEVICE_REMOVED vs DEVICE_RESET. hung usually means a timeout; removed can also mean the card actually dropped off teh bus, which points at power or teh slot. good luck man!

honestly just reset the BIOS and save yourself the pain. lol this thread is gold good luck man!

hmmmm quick q is 2000/xp) even worth bothering with or should i just leave it. same issue here on my second monitor setup. following this thread ?

yeahhh DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED means the GPU sotpped responding and Windows reset it (TDR), so teh game lost its D3D device. check Event Viewer > Windows Logs > System for Event ID 4101 at the crash time. if u see it, it's a GPU/driver reset, not a game file problem. fingers crossed 🤞

wait does this also apply to dxgi?

yeahhh this. so much this

ok but dumb question but how do i even check the extension :/ for me it was the antivirus, swapped it and boom, fixed

@camila.silva-2uj works on paper, not in real life. is gpu even worth bothering with or should i just leave it idk maybe im wrong lol

@cleo.reyes it was the performance preset. reset the ASUS app to defaults and kept A9800XT (Windows 2000/XP) . no crashes since, even during about 20 minutes in.
